Starting up on the salvage of this Corvallis barn next week. 1x12 weathered siding, rusty tin, 8x8 beams, 4" skip sheathing, and some 2x8 walls and flooring are the highlights of this barn. Most of the truss material is round poles, but there is some dimensional 2x as well.

Old Farmhouse

Salvaging this early 1900s farmhouse out in Sublimity. The walls are solid circle sawn 2x12s covered in wallpaper, never seen anything like it! Truss material is circle sawn dimensional 2x4. Floor joists are 2x6s sitting on 6x8 beams. Not a lot of lumber to salvage, but whats there sure is pretty!

This beautiful old building has served many purposes including a feed store and a seed cleaner. The lumber is exceptional, some of the 2x8s are 40' long with not a knot in sight! Floors on both top and bottom are 3.25" t&g fir. 2x6 trusses, 4" skip sheathing, 1x10 circle sawn sub floor, 8x8 posts and 3x joists. There are also grain scoops from the seed cleaner, which make great planters.

Salvaging this barn in Scotts Mills. It is a bank barn which you don't see too often around here. These barns, more common on the east coast, are unique because they allow ground level access to the hay loft as well as the lower level basement for housing animals. The current owner's grandfather built it around the turn of the century. This barn has 12x12 hand hewn beams, and 3x10 joists. The original 1x12 siding is intact under the metal.

The two other barns that are coming down have board and bat siding with a dark patina. Two smaller sheds with a similar black patina will also be salvaged.
